THE SCRIPT

{Greek statues and vases fade in}

Narrator: Long ago, in the faraway land of ancient Greece, there was a golden

age of powerful gods and extraordinary heroes. And the greatest

and strongest of all these heroes was the mighty Hercules.

[a greek vase is shown with a picture of Hercules fighting some monster. Vase

zooms in slowly]

But what is the measure of a true hero? Ah, that is what our story is-

Muse 1: Will you listen to him? He's makin' the story sound like some greek

tragedy.

Muse 5: Lighten up, dude.

Muse 3: We'll take it from here, darling.

Narrator: You go, girls

Muse 3: We are the Muses. Goddeses of the arts and proclaimers of the heroes.

Muse 5: Heroes like Hercules

Muse 1: Honey, you mean "hunk-ules". Ooh, I'd like to make some sweet music

with him-

[Muses start humming]

Muse 3: Our story actually begins long before Hercules, many eons ago..

[scene changes colors and the Muses start walking and singing]

Muses: (singing)

Back when the world was new

The planet Earth was down on its luck

And everywhere gigantic brutes called Titans ran amok

[schematic pictures of whatever gets mentioned in the song start moving]

It was a nasty place

There was a mess wherever you stepped

Where chaos reigned and the earthquakes and volcanos never slept

(Whoo! Say it, girlfriend!)

And then along came Zeus

He hurled his thunderbolt -- He zapped

Locked those suckers in a vault -- They're trapped

And on his own, stopped chaos on its tracks

And that's the gospel truth

The guy was too "type A" to just relax

And that's the world's first dish

(yeah, baby!)

Zeus tamed the globe while still in his youth

Tough, honey, it may seem impossible

That's the gospel truth

On Mount Olympus life was neat

And smooth as sweet vermouth

Although honey, it may seem impossible

That's the gospel truth

{schematic picture of Olympus zooms in and turns into a real one. While the

Muses still repeat their 'ah's and 'yeah's, camera moves up the mountain slope,while it does, the movie title, HERCULES, is shown. Then camera goes inside,

passes various chattering gods and finds baby Hercules}

Hera: Hercules! Behave yourself

[Zeus come in to play with baby too]

Zeus: Oh, look at this, look how cute he is..

[Zeus babbles at baby Hercules and he catches Zeus by index finger and lifts

above his cradle]

Hah! Oh, he's strong! Like his Dad, hmm?

Hermes (moving through a crowd of gods): Whoa! Excuse me! Hot stuff coming

through! Excuse me one side, Ares.

[Hermes hand Hera a bundle of glowing flowers]

Hera: Why, Hermes, they're lovely

Hermes: Yeah, you know, I had Orpheus do the arrangement. Isn't that too nutty?

(flying closer to Zeus now)

Fabulous party, you know, I haven't seen this much love in a room since

Narcissus discovered himself

[Narcissus is shown, staring into his mirror and making kissing sounds. Also

Baby Hercules gets one of Zeus' lightnings and plays with it]

Hera: Dear, keep those away from the baby.

Zeus: Oh, he won't hurt himself. Let the kid have a little fun

[Baby Hercules tryes to eat the lightning, gets zapped, and throws it away in

frustration. Three gods jump away from its path, untill Ares hits it with his

sword so it hits a pillar, which immidiately reappears]

Zeus: Oh, on behalf of my son, I want to thank you all for your wonderful

gifts

Hera: What about our gift, dear?



Zeus: Well, let's see here.. we'll take, hmm, yes, a little cirrus, and, hmm,

a touch of nimbostratus, and a dash of cumulus.

[Zeus moves his hand with a little pegasus-shaped cloud on it closer to baby

Hercules and the cloud turns out to be a baby pegasus]

His name is Pegasus, and he's all yours, son.

[Baby Hercules bonks his forehead against Baby Pegasus', he whinnies and licks

Hercules, they hug, all gods sigh]

Hera: Mind his head

Zeus: He's so tiny

[Baby Hercules tries to bite the medallion that hangs from his neck and then

yawns]

Zeus: My boy. My little Hercules.



Hades: How centimental.

[camera moves to Hades fast after his voice is heard]

You know, I haven't been this choked up since I got a hunk of moussaka

caught in my throat! huh?

[All gods look sternly at him]

So is this an audience of a mosaic? Hey, how you doin'? Lookin' good.

Nice dress.

[as he is saying that, he moves from one god to another untill Zeus squeezes

him in a hug]

Zeus: So Hades, you finally made it. How are things in the underworld?

Hades (taking Zeus' hand off his shoulder): well, they're just fine, you know,

a little dark, a little gloomy, and as always, hey, full of dead

people. What are you gonna do? Ah! There's the little sunspot, little

smootchie. And here is a sucker for the little sucker, eh?

(he weaves a sucker with skeleton head out of thin mist)

Here you go. Ya just--

[Hercules squeezes Hades' finger, and after some fight he gets away from the

baby]


sheesh! uh, powerful little tyke.

Zeus (hugging Hades once again): Come on, Hades, don't be such a stiff,

join the celebration!

Hades (getting free from the hug again): Hey, love to, babe, but unlike

you gods lounging about up here, I regrettably have a full-time gig

You know, by the way, so charitably bestowed on me, Zeus,

So.. can't. Love to, but can't.

Zeus: You ought to slow down, you'll work yourself to death... Hah! work

yourself to death!

[crowd laughing]

Oh, I kill myself

Hades: If only, if only..

{Scene changes back to the Muses}

Muse 3: If there's one god who don't want to get steamed up, it's Hades,

'cause he had an evil plan

{scene changes to a boat on the river Styx, in which a skeleton is carrying

Hades}

Muses sing in background:



He ran the underworld

But thought the dead were dull and uncouth

He was as mean as he was ruthless

And that's the gospel truth

He had a plan to shake things up

[Hades feeds the three-deaded dog Cerberus]

And that's the gospel truth

[Hades gets on the shore]

Hades: Pain!

Pain: Coming, your most lugubriousness.

[He trips, roll on the stair and gets seated on a sharp trident]

Hades: Panic!

Panic: Oh, I'm sorry, I can handle it!

[He rans, but trips over Pain, who just got free from the trident, falls over,

and his horns get stuck in Pain the same place trident just was]

Pain: Pain!

Panic: And Panic!

Both: Reporting for duty!

Hades: Fine, fine, fine, just let me know the instant the Fates arrive.

Panic (who just got his horns free from Pain): Oh! They're here!

Hades bursts into flames:

What? The Fates are here and you didn't tell me?

Pain and Panic: We are worms! Worthless worms!

[they really shapechange into worms]

Hades: Memo to me, memo to me, maim you after my meeting

{scene change to a cavern with the Fates}

Atropos: Darling, hold that mortal's thread of life good and tight

[She cuts a thread with scissors and a woman scream is heard]

Lachesis: Incoming!

[Fates laugh as a soul enters the cave and flies into a tunnel. Counter above

the tunnel now says "Over 5000000001 served"]

Hades: Ladies! hah! I am so sorry that I'm--

Atropos: Late

Clotho: We knew you would be

Lachesis: We know everything

[they pass their only eye from one another as they speak the next three lines]

Clotho: Past

Lachesis: Present

Atropos: And future (to Panic): Indoor plumbing - it's gonna be big.

Hades: Great. Great. Anyway, see, Ladies, I was at this party, and I lost

track of--

Fates: We know!

Hades: Yeah. I know.. you know. So, here's the deal. Zeus, Mr High and Mighty,

Mr. "Hey, you, get off my cloud," now he has--

Fates: A bouncing baby brat.

Clotho: We know!

Hades: I know.. you know. I know. I got it. I got the concept, so let me just

ask: Is this kid gonna mess up my hostile takeover big, or what?

What do you think?

Lachesis: Um--

Clotho silences her: Oh no, you don't. We are not supposed to reveal the

future.


Hades: Oh wait, I'm sorry. Time out. Can I? Can I ask you a question, by

the way? Are you, (to Lachesis), did you cut your hair of something?

You look fabulous.

Lachesis giggles

Hade: I mean, you look like a fate worse then death

Lachesis giggles more, Clotho hits her on the head, the eye fells out into the

hands of Panic

Panic: Oh, gross!

Pain: Yech! It's blinkin'!

[he kicks it into Hades' hand]

Hades: Ladies, please, my fate... (he puts the eye to Lachesis' hand) is in

your lovely hands

Lachesis: Oh, yeah

Clotho: All right.

[the eye raises in the air, showing pictures of the future]

Atropos:


In 18 years precisely

The planets will align

Ever so nicely

Hades: Ay, verse!. Oy.

Atropos:

The time to act will be at hand

Unleash the Titans, your monstrous band

Hades: Mm-hmm, good, good.

Atropos:

Then the once-proud Zeus will finally fall,

And you, Hades, will rule all!

Hades: Yes! Hades rules!!!

Atropos:

A word of caution to this tale

Hades: Excuse me?

Atropos:


Should Hercules fight, you will fail

[Fates disappear, cackling]

Hades (burning into flame): What???

(cooling down): Okay, fine, fine, I'm cool, I'm fine

[bell dings]

Pain? Panic? Got a little riddle for ya. How do you kill a god?

Pain: I do not... know!

Panic: You can't. They're immortal?

Hades: Bingo! They're immortal

(he takes a vial with red liquid and camera zooms at it, filling the screen)

So, first you got to turn the little sunspot mortal.

{Mount Olympus, dusk. Baby Hercules and Baby Pegasus are sleeping together}

[Shadows of Pain and Panic crawl over Baby Hercules, sound of glass breaking,

and Pain and Panic tittering makes Zeus and Hera wake]

Zeus: Huh?

Hera: What? what is it?

Both: The Baby!

[They run to the cradle but find only the Baby Pegasus]

Hera: Hercules! Oh!

[she starts sobbing.]

Zeus: No!!!

[as he screams that, lightnings flash and giant thunderstorm rages over Olympus.

Pain and Panic are flying down, carrying Baby Hercules]

Panic: Now we did it! Zeus is gonna use us for target practice!

Pain: Just hang onto the kid, Panic.

[They fall and Baby Hercules starts crying]

Panic: Hurry! Let's just kill the kid and het it over with, okay?

Pain (opening the vial): Here you go, kid, a little grecian formula.

Panic: Look at that! He's.. changing

[Baby Hercules stops glowing as he drinks the potion]

Can we do it now?

Pain: No, no, no, he has to drink the whole potion! Every last drop.

Amphitryon: Who's there?

[Pain and Panic run away, dropping the empty vial. It breaks and one

last drop falls into the ground]

Alcmene, over here.

Alcmene: Oh, you poor thing! Oh, don't cry

Amphitryon: Is anybody there?

[Pain and Panic look from bushes]

Panic: Now?

Pain: Now.

[Their shadows are shown as they walk and transform into snakes]

Amphitryon: Oh well, he must have been abandoned.

Alcmene: Amphitryon, for so many years we've prayed to the gods to bless us

with a child.

[Amphitryon reads Hercules' name from a medallion on his neck]

Perhaps they've answered our prayers

Amphitryion: Perhaps they have... Hercules?

[Pain and Panic, as snakes, attack, but Baby Hercules catches them, and

giggling happily, hits them several times against the ground, ties into a knot

and throws far away. Amphitryon and Alcmene stare with they jaws dropped]

Pain and Panic: Help, help, help!

[they turn to their normal forms]

Panic: Hades is gonna kill us when he finds out what happened.

Pain: You mean, *if* he finds out

Pani: Of course he's gonna f-- If.. if is good.

{pan to Mount Olympus in dark clouds and then resolve to the Muses}

Muse 2: It was tragic. Zeus led all the gods on a frantic search

Muse 5: But by the time they found the baby, it was too late.

Muse 2 starts singing:

Young Herc was mortal now

But since he did not drink the last drop -- mm

He still retained his godlike strength -- oh

So thank his lucky stars -- tell it, girl

But Zeus and Hera wept -- ooh, ooh, ooh

Because their son could never come home -- ooh

They'd have to watch their precious baby

Grow up from afar

Though Hades' horrid plan

Was hatched before Herc cut his first tooth -- ahh

The boy grew stronger every day

And that's the gospel truth

The gospel truth

{resolve to country with sheeps baaing}

[A carriage with a lot of hay moves along the road unnaturally fast, then we

see Amphitryon and his horse sitting before it]

Amphitryon: Hercules, slow down!

[We now see its young Hercules who is moving the carriage. They enter a country

fair, hitting some workers on the top of the gate]

Amphitryong: Look out!

[workers fall]

Young Hercules: Oops! S-s-sorry guys!

Worker (falling down): Hey, watch where you're goin'!

Worker 2: Sunday driver!

[Hercules enters the middle of the square and stops, buring himself into the

ground shoulders-deep]

Amphitryon: Thanks, son. When old Penelope twisted her ankle back there,

I thought we were done for.

Hercules: No problem, Pop.

Amphitryon: Uh, don't-don't-don't unload just yet. First I have to finagle

with Phideas.

Hercules: Okay.

[he drops the hay on the cart which makes their horse, Penelope, fly up into

the sky]


Oops, sorry, Penelope.

Amphitryon: Now, Hercules, this time, please just--

Hercules: I know, I know

[he catches falling Penelope]

Stay by the cart

Amphitryon: That's my boy.

[Hercules stays untill he sees a man loosing balance with a big clay pot]

Man: Oh, my goodness. Whoa!

[Hercules catches him just in time]

Herules: Careful!

Man: Why thank you

Hercules: No problem

Man (sees Hercules and looks frightened): Why, Hercules! It's you!

Hercules: Let me, let me help you with that

Man: No, no, no, no, no, I got it.

[He almost falls under the giant pot]

I'm fine, you just run along.

Hercules: Are you sure?

Man: Oh, yes. Absolutely.

[He leaves Hercules outside in the street. A freesbee falls to his feet.

He picks it up and sees three boys about his age]

Boy 1: Yo! Give it here!

Hercules: Hey, you need an extra guy?

Boy 1: Uh.. sorry, Herc. We already got.. five. And we want to keep it an

even number.

Hercules: Hey, wait a second. Five isn't an even--

Boy 1: (snatching the freesbee): see ya, Herc.

Boy 2: What a geek!

Boy 3: Destructo boy.

Boy 1: Maybe we should call him "Jerkules"

[Hercules sits alone in the center of a square untill the freesbee appears above

his head]

Boy 1: Heads up!

Hercules: I-I got it!

Boy 1: No! Stop!

[Hercules hits a pillar, which starts falling]

Hercules: Uh-oh.. Oh no!.. It's okay..

[He holds the pillar he has hit, but others start falling one by one, like

domino. He sees that and throws the pillar he was holding away, but it hits

another standing pillar and another domino wave starts going around the square]

Hey! Whoa!

Amphitryon: Son!

Hercules: Hang on, Pop! Be right back!

[The two domino waves seem to be aiming at the shop with clay pots]

Man: Oh my! Oh no! Don't! Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!

[The last two pillars stop above the man's head. He sighs, relaxed, but

Hercules, who was running to save him, slips and slides to him fast]

Hercules: Watch out!

[Now everything is destroyed]

Boy 1: Nice catch, Jerkules.

Amphitryon: Son

Man: This is the last straw, Amphitryon!

Voice: That boy is a menace!

Voice 2: He's too dangerous to be around normal people!

Amphitryon: He didn't mean any harm, he's just a kid. He-he just can't control

his strength

Man: I am warning you. You keep that-that-that.. freak away from here!

Boy: Freak! Yeah, go away!

{on a grassy hillside, Hercules and Amphitryon sit alone}

Amphitryon: Son, you shouldn't let those things they said back there get to

you.

Hercules: But Pop, they're right. I-I am a freak. I try to fit in, I really do.



I just can't. Sometimes.. I feel like, like I really don't belong here.

Like I'm supposed to be.. someplace else.

Amphitryon: Hercules, son--

Hercules: I know it doesn't make any sense.

[Hercules walk away and sings]

I have often dreamed of a far off place

Where a great, warm welcome will be waiting for me

Where the crowds will cheer when they see my face

And a voice keeps sayin' this is where I'm meant to be

I will find my way

I can go the distance

I'll be there someday

If I can be strong

I know every mile

Will be worth my while

I would go most anywhere to feel like I belong.

[he returns home]

Amphitryon: Hercules, there's something your mother and I have been meaning

to tell ya.

{inside the house}

Hercules: But if you found me, then where did I come from? Why was I left here?

Alcmene: This was around your neck when we found you. It's the symbol of the

gods.

Hercules: This is it! Don't you see? Maybe they have the answers! I'll go to



the temple of Zeus and--

Ma, Pop, you're the greatest parents anyone could have, but..

I-I gotta know

{Next morning, Hercules walks to the Temple and sings}

I am on my way

I can go the distance

I don't care how far

Somehow I'll be strong

I know every mile

Will be worth my while

I would go most everywhere to find where I belong.

[Hercules enters the Temple of Zeus]

Hercules: Oh mighty Zeus, please, hear me and answer my prayer. I need to know:

Who am I? Wh-where do I belong?

[wind blows, lightning hits the statue of Zeus, flame ignites in braziers..]

Huh?


[..and the statue of Zeus comes to life]

Zeus: My boy. My little Hercules.

[He reaches for Hercules, who runs away, screaming]

Hey, hey, hey, hold on kiddo! What's your hurry? After all these years

is this a kind of hello to give your father?

Hercules: Father?

Zeus: Didn't know you had a famous father, did you? Surprise!!

Look how you've grown. Why you've got your mother's beautiful eyes...

and my strong chin. Hah!

Hercules: I-I don't understand. If you are my father, that would make me a--

Zeus: A god.

Hercules: A god. A god!

Zeus: Hey, you wanted answers, and by thunder, you're old enough to know the

truth


Hercules: But why did you leave me on earth? Didn't you want me?

Zeus: Of course we did. Your mother and I loved you with all our hearts but

someone stole you from us and turned you mortal, and only gods can live

on Mount Olympus.

Hercules: And you can't do a thing?

Zeus: I can't, Hercules, but you can.

Hercules: R-really? W-what? I-I'll do anything.

Zeus: Hercules, if you can prove yourself a true hero on Earth, your godhood

will be restored!

Hercules: A true hero. Great! Uh, exactly how do you become a true hero?

Zeus: First, you must seek out Philoctetes, the trainer of heroes.

Hercules: Seek out Philoctetes. Right. I'll--

[he falls off Zeus' palm]

Whoa!


Zeus: Whoa! Hold your horses! Which reminds me..

[Zeus whistles and the Pegasus flies through an opening in the roof]

Ha-ha! You probably don't remember Pegasus but you two go way back, son

[Pegasus sniffs Hercules, then bonks foreheads with him and licks him]

Hercules: Oh, Pegasus !

Zeus: He is a magnificient horse. With the brain of a bird.

Hercules: I'll find Philoctetes and become a true hero!

Zeus: That's the spirit!

Hercules: I won't let you down, father! Yee-haw!

Zeus: Good luck, son.

[Hercules flies away, singing:]
